Not sure if this patch is suitable for backport, since it introduces
new internal API.
But since API is internal, perhaps it is OK to get it, specially because
it is required for next patch that is a fix. Keeping the tag and leaving
the decision to LTS maintainers.

Hi Kumara,
There are some instances in the existing code that can benefit from new API [1],
do you have any bandwidth to make a patch to replace
'rte_eth_dev_get_port_by_name()'
with new 'rte_eth_dev_get_by_name()'?
(For the cases 'port_id' is used to get eth_dev)
Thanks,
ferruh
